Western Reserve Carriage Association in Zoar

I had heard through Facebook updates that today was the day that the Western Reserve Carriage Association was holding an event in Zoar. From pictures I had seen in the past, it looked like something to take a look at and I'm glad I did.

It appeared to be part friendly competition and part social gather for these folks. I asked one of the horse owners just what type of horse is used for these carriage events. Of course I'm thinking it's just like Shetland pony since these are small carriages, but was told that there are many breeds. Basically, anything that can pull a carriage. I got to watch a few of the competitors take their horses through the obstacle course and it was pretty interesting to watch. But, being Mother's Day, I couldn't stick around that long. Here are some of the images I was able to capture.
